Free fall . . . from Space.?!

Have you ever done free fall.. like in bungee jumping or sky diving etc.. ? Feels exciting, and scary too doesn’t it? How much height did you jump from? not more than 200 – 300 meters i guess? Well This man – Joseph Kittinger did a free fall from over 31 Kilometers!!! surprised?

He was a command Pilot in the US Air Force and he holds the world records for having the highest, fastest and longest skydive.

On August 16, 1960, he went up to an altitude of 31,300 Meters in a helium balloon and jumped from that height.
